I'm looking for any ideas for a competitive Empire army for around 2400 points,
I have a wide range of models but no real idea of how they work together,
if anyone could lend a suggestion or two i would be very thankful!

Big block of 50+ halberds, 1-2 steam tanks, 1-2 great cannons, 1-2 units of Demi knights, 1 unit of 10+ inner circle knights, 1-2 small units of bows or crossbows, war alter, warrior priests, unkillable mounted BSB, unkillable general, the giant spectrum thing that looks like a telescope on a cart, lv.4 wizard.........I don't play empire, but play competitively and go to a lot of tournaments and what I just stated seems to be a pretty common build for good empire armies. Obviously not everything i mentioned is taken at once, but most lists seem to come from this pool of units.

Case in point:

The standard build is a medium unit of halberds, 5 Angry BIrds, Banishbattery, dual cannons, Hurricanum, and a helblaster or a tank.

Thankyou alot of the info guys i will look into this alot more and maybe make a list.
I am grateful for the help.
